The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Too funny. My buddy who is neighbours with Don Taylor and has the odd beer with him said Taylor implied that most if not all message board posters are a bunch of pricks and that they carve up all radio/tv personalities. I have also heard him say on the radio how message boards are a bunch of clowns and cowards for carving up the media.

REGINA — Thanks to strong demand for resources, Saskatchewan’s export sales are expected to pass those of more-populous B.C. this year, the head of the Prairie province’s export agency says.

Lionel LaBelle, president-CEO of the Saskatchewan Trade and Export Partnership (STEP) says recently released figures collected by Statistics Canada indicate the province’s farms, mines and industries had sold $16.035 billion of products to foreign buyers by the end of June, compared with B.C.’s $15.6 billion.

That works out to a 16.8-per cent increase in export sales so far this year, atop a 24-per-cent rise in 2011, he said, adding this puts us behind Ontario, Alberta and Quebec as exporters.

Saskamammyrammer no more...

I dub thee British Colmammyrammerumbia!

It is only going to get worse for BC when the Commies get elected next year. You folks were smart enough to reject them, but our layabout sun drenched populous thinks the free ride they promise is a reality.

No shit Topper. everyone wants to hate on the Libs and Gordo and co. but the mongoloids that make up the NDP scare the fuck out of me. Businesses will leave , our taxes will skyrocket, but hey the toilets cleaners at the hospital and the unions will be smiling like a butchers dog. Be prepared to take a substantial haircut on your earnings when the NDP take office. John Cummings and Christy Cunt really need to unite the right and give the NDP the boot in 2017-218.....

Not trying to be funny, but what business has ever left BC exactly on account of the government being left wing? I've heard that threat since I was a kid and it was Dave Barrett's NDP, but the only business I've seen leave is companies sell out to larger American concerns who liquidate assets and take the business south, pretty much all on either the Socred or BC liberal's watch

oh and fuck the BC Liberals for being lying cunts about being Liberal, I don't mind the right, but fuck off and call a spade a spade...

mining as far as i understand it didnt leave, it stopped due to dropping world prices, its on the rebound now not because of anything victoria has done but rather because China is buying again...

see my expanded reply

Land Tenure is the biggest issue facing the industry in BC. Gordo got the ball started again in BC by signing MOU's with several groups of wagon burners. He then dropped the ball by not pursuing the issue further and leaving each project to negotiate with the local bands. The result is a patchwork of half agreements with bands playing off one another to get better deals. It is in their interest to prolong the process as the Supreme Court has decided that the company also has to foot the bill for the Band to hire lawyers and consultants to study oppose the project.

Mines such as Similco and Afton have been reopened, Kemmess and now Mt Milligan are about the only two to be developed with several stalled at the negotiating table.
